    The Green Police
    Did anyone else see the Audi commercial? It seemed like an ominous foreshadowing of the sociali..err.. Environmental movement :) I keep forgetting about that disguise.

    YouTube - Audi 2010 Green Car Super Bowl Commercial

    Just seemed a bit... creepy.

    It seems to have summed up the 'Cap and Trade' deal in a 30-second "let's lure the public in" feel. I mean... you are saving the environment right? That can't be bad right? Who cares about anything else? Right? ... :rolleyes:


    ... Right?...

    (Now where is my tinfoil hat? :gj: )

    I think it was meant as a joke... Some people got it anyway.

    But more importantly, what the heck is that animal with the leash?

    Or not lol. Who knows. Whatever it is... I wonder why they didn't use a dog. What isn't green about a dog? lol

    Yeah, I am pretty sure it is an anteater. I'll google and try to find a pic of the right species. I think the one pic'd in the post above mine is a giant anteater.

    EDIT - Here ya go. It is a lesser anteater:

    Oh, and apparently his name is Mario and he's from Salinas:

    Can't edit the last post anymore, but I found this news clip that has some nice shots of the little guy:
